JUST GOSSIP ABOUT PEOPLE Nancy Wynne Speaks of Tours in the Far East Many Striking Costumes Worn at the Polh HAVE you noticed the absolute rage there Is for trips to Japan this year? Of course, It Is not yet possible to go about easily in Europe, and so thoe who want to travel are soing the other way. The Gardner Cassatts, Harry Wain Harrisons and Duanes, who hare all been out there and come back, have wonderful stories to tell of the beauties of that "honorable" coun try. , ' Now the latest ones to go out there, I understand, are the Oray Daytons, Mrs. Daytpn was Miss Mary Wurts, you rpmenber. and has be?n married about' three years. She is one of the .most popular of the younger matrons In town, In fact she Is so young looking It almost seems a joke to call her a matron, Tho Fenno noffmans have been home .from their Jnpqn trip about three weeks. Fenno married Marie right, you remember, the younger daughter of .the Harrison Wrights, of Bala, nnd a sister of Sibyl Wright, who married Osgood Coates. The' Ned Brownings and Ted their son are in '.Tnpuu now. And I under stand that Mrs. Roy Morris and her children hive gone back to Japan from California, where they spent a couple of 'months. Ambassador Morris had to be away a great deal of the time and the climate was pretty trjing for Mr. Morris, so when her sister-in-law, Mrs. Russell Duane, who had been visiting her. came back to the states, she crossed the PaeiP- with her. THAT certainly was an exciting polo game out at the Country Club last Saturday between Rockawny nud Mrnd owbrook. Rockawny won In spite of Devereux Mllbnrn and his wonderful pony, which is supposed to be the finest pony in the world. The world and his wife were there. They filled the boxes, the grand stand, the admission setits, the Country Club lawn and five happy youngsters viewed the game from' a tree, There, was a goodly Sprinkling of debutantes. Mrs. Sam Carpenter and her daughter Edith were sitting iu a box together. Mrs. Carpenter was very smart in a blue serge dress and a blnck hat trimmed with ostrich feathers round the brim. Edith wore,!5lstraw hat trimmed with pink and blue'flowers, with one or two black -eyed susaus tucked In for color, and a very thin navy blue sweater over her white waist and skirt. The dark Shade was very becoming to her blonde coloring and she looked fresh and girlish. Marion Balrd, who Is another blonde, joined Mrs. Carpenter and Edith. Mar ion had on a white dress and a large robin's -egg blue hat. There was a flat wreath of small pink roses round the brim. ANOTHER debutante was Lucy Grey, who wore a plain blue suit and a smart little black velvet toque. If Lucy is as popular this winter as she was down at Cape May she ought to be one of "the most dashing belles of the Reason. Rachel Price, one of those war :debutantes of two winters ago, who are really coming out this winter, was there with her cousin, Owen Martin. Rachel looked Very sweet and demure in a blue dlk dress and haf. Ellen Glendfnning wore white. jVTRS. ARTHUR NEWROLD, Mar "Ljorle Yarnall that was, wore a Urge blue silk hat. and a dress the biO,use of which was of blue and white crepe, nnd it had an overskirt of the same material over a blue satin kirt. She is the daughter of Mr. Charlton Tarnall, who built that attractive Tudor house at the corner of Seventeenth and Locust streets where they have such at tractive musicales. , Mr. and Mrs. rtenjumiu Rush' were It the game, too. Mrs. Rush wore a plain but very smart little black toque and a black dress. During the war Mrs. Rush was the moving spirit of Red Cross Auxiliary No. 1. There was never too rn'ioh for her to do. Her oldest daughter, Charlotte, was a grat belle when she came out several yars ap.o, She married John Drayto.ii, you know, before he went overseas. Mazle Rush, the tecond daughter, is one of the war debutantes who is really com ing out this year. PHILADELPHIA women love blue as much as ever, that's sure. It as tha predominating color among the darker dresses. And certainly blonde gills haven't gone out of exlitence (hough somebody wrote a higa-brow nitlcle recently to that effect. There were as pretty a set of fair girU nt tsrout the debutaute age aud jouuger as I ever want to look at. THOUGH JIMMIE Is not seven apd Polly is four and a half years of age, they arc both clever poker players. The other evening they were playing wth Father and Mother and another lady, Each had his or her neat little pile of chips dnd every now and then Polly would pipe up, "I call you, mamria," or papa, or whoever the player might be. 'Well the game went very well, but poor Tolly began losing and she lost and lost. She was an awfully good sport for a long time, however, but finally she could not stand it any longer and, putting her small head down on the table, she said to mother, who was deal ing the cards, "Don't give me any more, mamma." "Why not, dear?" And in a wee, heartbroken voice she whispered, "Cause everybody wins me." NANOT WYNNE.

Land Speculators Criminal To the Editor n tht Ft 'vlng Pnblle l.tdotr: T InKtni" morning's news (Sep tember 12), we read that Governor Sproul will request the public welfare commission, the state banklni depart ment arid the attorney general's office ... .mil rnriy attention to inc housing situation in Philadelphia. Under the scrutiny of three such au gust bodies one may hope for more light upon the subject, particularly as Go -ernor Sproul is reported to Jiare said : "I feel that the situation deserves the serious consideration of the state gov ernment." We nre told upon good authority that there are at this moment upward of .mini vacant houses kept unoccupied in Philadelphia by the activities of real estate speculators, and it would seem to the average man that the investigation might be evtended to include the ac tivities of the speculator in vacant land who hold such land Idle in order that they maj gather speculative increases in lnnd values.

It Is quite evident that the shortage in houses cannot be overcome within the nevt four or five years unless the city of Philadelphia spends money in needed improements.

These nre oniy Rome or tne ttvings this nsso- i ciation stands for and for which the patrolman was taken into his lieuten ant's room and told if he did not re sign his membership he would re ceive the consequences, which nre un derstood in the patrolman's line of duty. I was taken into the lieutenant's room nnd told to resign from the association. Refused to pay the political assess ments, hounded ; resigned ; discharged after resigning; but will say a new era is eomincr in our midst, for in J Ilmon- ton Moore we trust the Philadelphia police will not hae to join the Ameri can Federation of Labor to gain their rights and justice. In union there is strength, and that is why the working man has to unionize when he is ill treated. For when a man is treated fairly and squarely he won't pay any moneys out foolishly just to belong to any association so as to leave certain ones just sit around UUng off of him when he hns to work hard for his liv ing. That Is against his honor as a man and ngainst Americanism. In the Bos ton case the men are held responsible i in the eyes nf the country, but whati about those in power who might have causeo it, as i nave snown you, right in . this A'are administration V Who stood up and said "We stand for tlie work lngffi.au?" JACOP. STRICKLER. Philadelphia. September 18. Defends French Girls To the Editor of the hvmlng PuhHe Ledger: Sir In your issue of September 1(1 I read witn extreme interest Mrs. W. U. Arnold's disdainful opinion of French girls. Fortunately Mrs. W. P.. Arnold was accorded a prerogative in obtaining passports to go to France to bring back her dearly beloved son, Lieutenant H. I?. Arnold, so that he wouldn't be inr fluenced by those French girls who per- ambulnte the streets barelegged. It must have been an awful sight for her, indeed! And poor sonny mother was constrained to go over there and bring him back safely! The writer lias served twenty -two months with the. American expeditionary forces and has brought back with him not a French girl but a really refined young lady who is indeed a great competitor with auy of Mrs. Arnold's friends for strict moral training, education, politeuens and everything else which may be conducive to the makings of a refined lady All those of us who hae unfor tunately seen the conditions as they were in France will humbly admit that there is a class of girls in France (as there is here in America) who cannot be classed as "good, refined girls," but one may go to any part of thp world and find thp same they are everywhere. ..! iv 15, Arnold has not, unfor- tunately. come in contact with the polite people of France, for if she had she woud have happily formed a contrary opinlou. Speaking of "table manners" in the army, what doughboy has ever heard of table manners in the army V He did . - i,.,. . k .,i,..o. .....,... "'t R" '" "" '" "- "'")' wurv.wu- of the things to which he was accus tomed nt home. He went over there to light, aud that's what he did, and if he brought home a "French girl" tat. Mrs. Arnold terms them), I think his wife should command the respect of etery body. When the doughboys came back from , France and readjusted themsehes to civilian life they retained the same 1 politeness, courtesy and table manners, I despite the ruggedness of the army.
